Empire City

Empire City is a city located in New Mexico, United States. The city was founded by American settlers in the 1850s, and the city would develop into one of the major cities of the Southwest. By 1880, the city was ruled by the corrupt mayor Hoodoo Brown, who hired gunslingers J.J. Webb and Dave Rudabaugh as his bodyguards and had the protection of railroad magnate Tom Magruder. The city's oppressed peoples formed a resistance group under Clay Allison, and the resistance succeeded in killing Brown and freeing the city of corruption.
